At around 3 pm on Jan. 20th, all the security checkpoints that were allowing protesters near Pennsylvania Ave were shut down by the police and no more protesters were being allowed through, according to a report called in near 13th and Pennsylvania Ave.

A small group of about 20-30 anarchists was reportedly surrounded by riot police near the 13th and Pennsylvania Ave security checkpoint.

As the motorcade neared, a roar of deafening boos rose from the crowd.

Attached are two pictures taken from the street.
